element does not allow machining a charpy specimen.
As max OD is 60.3mm and the thick2.77mm. These two combined size
constraint (thickness & radious of curvature) does not allow machining
the charpy specimen in the tube.
To perform impact test it shall be necessary to weld thicker material,
in this case welding energy will not be representative of weld .
Base material TP304L,welded with dedicated filler ER308L.by TIG
process.My experience this configration gives confident good weld
toughness garentees good result,no risk of embrittlement at cryogenic
temprature.
